To

alleviate

the

problem,

change

the

orientation

of

this

unit;

or

move

it

farther

away

from

the

source

of

interfer-

ence.

This

device

may

interfere

with

radio

and

television

recep-

tion.

Do

not

use

this

device

in

the

vicinity

of

such

receivers.

Do

not

expose

the

unit

to

direct

sunlight,

place

it

near

devices

that

radiate

heat,

leave

it

inside

an

enclosed

vehicle,

or

otherwise

subject

it

to

temperature

extremes.

Excessive

heat

can

deform

or

discolor

the

unit.

Maintenance

For

everyday

cleaning

wipe

the

unit

with

a

soft,

dry

cloth

or

one

that

has

been

slightly

dampened

with

water.

To

remove

stubborn

dirt,

use

a

cloth

impregnated

with

a

mild,

non-abrasive

detergent.

Afterwards,

be

sure

to

wipe

the

unit

thoroughly

with

a

soft,

dry

cloth.

Never

use

benzene,

thinners,

alcohol

or

solvents

of

any

kind,

to

avoid

the

possibility

of

discoloration

and/or

deformation.

Repairs

and

Data

Please

be

aware

that

all

data

contained

in

the

unit's

memory

may

be

lost

when

the

unit

is

sent

for

repairs.

Important

data

should

always

be

backed

up

in

another

MIDI

device

(e.g.,

a

sequencer),

or

written

down

on

paper

(when

possible).

During

repairs,

due

care

is

taken

to

avoid

the

loss

of

data.

However,

in

certain

cases

(such

as

when

circuitry

memory

itself

is

out

of

order),

we

regret

that

it

may

not

be

possible

to

restore

the

data,

and

Roland

assumes

no

liability

concerning

such

loss

of

data.

Memory

Backup

This

unit

contains

a

battery

which

powers

the

unit's

memory

circuits

while

the

main

power

is

off.

When

this

battery

becomes

weak,

the

message

shown

below

will

appear

in

the

display.

Once

you

see

this

message,

have

the

battery

replaced

with

a

fresh

one

as

soon

as

possible

to

avoid

the

loss

of

all

data

in

memory.

To

have

the

battery

replaced,

consult

with

your

dealer,

or

qualified

Roland

service

personnel.

Low

!!

Change

Additional

Precautions

Please

be

aware

that

the

contents

of

memory

can

be

irretrievably

lost

as

a

result

of

a

malfunction,

or

the

improper

operation

of

the

unit.

To

protect

yourself

against

the

risk

of

loosing

important

data,

we

recommend

that

you

periodically

save

a

backup

copy

of

important

data

you

have

stored

in

the

unit's

memory

in

another

MIDI

device

(e.g.,

a

sequencer).

Unfortunately,

it

may

be

impossible

to

restore

the

con-

tents

of

data

that

was

stored

in

the

unit's

memory

once

it

has

been

lost.

Roland

Corporation

assumes

no

liability

concerning

such

loss

of

data.

Use

a

reasonable

amount

of

care

when

using

the

unit's

buttons,

sliders,

or

other

controls;

and

when

using

its

jacks

and

connectors.

Rough

handling

can

lead

to

mal-

functions.

Never

strike

or

apply

strong

pressure

to

the

display.

When

connecting

/

disconnecting

all

cables,

grasp

the

connector

itself—never

pull

on

the

cable.

This

way

you

will

avoid

causing

shorts,

or

damage

to

the

cable's

internal

elements.

A

small

amount

of

heat

will

radiate

from

the

unit

during

normal

operation.

To

avoid

disturbing

your

neighbors,

try

to

keep

the

unit's

volume

at

reasonable

levels.

You

may

prefer

to

use

headphones,

so

you

do

not

need

to

be

concerned

about

those

around

you

(especially

when

it

is

late

at

night).

When

you

need

to

transport

the

unit,

package

itin

the

box

(including

padding)

that

it

came

in,

if

possible.

Other-

wise,

you

will

need

to

use

equivalent

packaging

materi-

als.
